Junior Spartan Cheerleading is a youth program for all girls entering 2nd-6th grades. For a description of this year's offering, please visit "About Cheerleading" listed under Programs at the top of our website homepage.

We have designed a new, better fitting, more comfortable cheerleading uniform this year. Cost of a new uniform is in addition to the cheerleading registration fee. If you want to order a uniform, please order from Over The Mountain Sporting Goods in Crestline using the link below. There are samples at the store in Crestline if you are unsure of your child's size. We offered two tank options. Either is fine; just choose what fits better/which material your child prefers. All orders must be made through the cheer store. Buying a new uniform is not mandatory. You are welcome to wear the same uniform as last year. Be sure to check the store out as there are lots of cute offerings this year! Orders must be received by July 27th to ensure that the uniforms arrive on time for the start of the season.
